The Bills’ 2026 opponents are set

The Buffalo Bills settled into second place in the AFC East during Week 17, finalizing several of their opponents for the 2026 season. The rest of the opponent list came into focus on Sunday as the second-place team in the rest of the AFC divisions were finalized.

Buffalo Bills 2026 opponents

The Bills will always do the home-and-home series with the other three AFC East teams, so the New England Patriots, Miami Dolphins, and New York Jets are on the docket.

The three-year rotation brings together the AFC West and the AFC East in 2026, so the Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs, and the Las Vegas Raiders will all be Bills opponents in 2026.

The four-year rotation with the NFC divisions will have the AFC East playing the NFC North. The Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, and Chicago Bears are all on Buffalo’s schedule.

The three final opponents are determined by division finish. The second-place team in the AFC South and the AFC North will play the Bills along with the second-place team in the NFC West. The Houston Texans were second in the AFC South, the Baltimore Ravens were second in the AFC North, and the Los Angeles Rams were second in the NFC West. That’s a tough gauntlet.
